flitter!
Buzz buzz buzz! That's the sound of your network device receiving a social alert. Maybe you've poked around your device a little bit already, or maybe you haven't, but either way - you're about to have the chance to take part in one of Fable's social apps!

The notification chimes directly from Flitter (the fairy version of Twitter!) And this app is exactly what you would expect. Mostly nonsense scattered among hundreds and thousands of Fleets (Tweets) from the mystical creatures of Fable (and beyond!)

Your device pings you to the following post:

New Fable villagers!!!!!! Give us ur most spicy take! GO!!! #fablenewbies

While as fun as they are kind, no one can deny that the Fae have a tendency to be quite mischievous. Giving them access to social media only seems to enhance these feelings! Looks like they want the new inhabitants of Fable - or just anyone who receives a magical notification - to post to Flitter with their spiciest take! Do you have certain opinions on how milky a cup of tea should be? Do you think sprinkles on cupcakes are essential or pointless? No matter the opinion, the Fae want to see it and strike up discussion!

Time to grab the popcorn.

Copy and paste the following code into your comment section to make a Flitter post:


Welcome to Fable's first network social! Please read this before participating!

This social post is open to everyone! This means that you do not have to be a member of Fable to participate! You can think of it like a fun TDM, since network socials like this will happen every month within the game.

We ask that non-Fable residents mark that they're not in-game in their subject line, and that Fable residents use the hashtag #fablenewbies in their posts so that the Fae can find them! After all, they wanted to see some exciting conversations brewing within Fable, but outsiders are more than welcome to chime in as well. Feel free to assume that Flitter is just as big of a dumpster fire as real Twitter. The code is only required for a toplevel, but replies can be written in a text font (like courier.)

Lastly, while we love IC banter, please remember to be civil and familiarise yourself with the game rules. Have fun!

Maybe? There's a lot of challenges and games. Which one are trying to do?

Naming something spicy! Isn't that what the fairies wanted?

The hot take challenge you mean? Not exactly. From other fleets I've seen, it means you're supposed to fleet something that is an unpopular opinion. You're not wrong with sriracha being a little hot at least.

You can delete it, but I don't think people realized you were doing the hot take challenge so I think you're good.

Whew. What a relief! I did have a few people chiming in about hot sauce. Guess they thought the same thing, huh?

I did so you're good. Soon enough there will be another challenge or something else trending to distract people.

I saw someone else accidentally make a fleet instead of using the search bar earlier.

You know what? I can't blame them! I figure I would've done something like that too.
